This bill became law on 2026-03-20 as Public Law No. 119-80.
The summary below describes the bill at the version we last reviewed; the enacted text may differ.
Congress waived the usual 60-day notification requirement so the Army could move forward immediately with the posthumous honorary promotion of Captain Cody Khork to the rank of major. This is a procedural measure — it doesn't change military policy broadly, but it cuts through red tape to honor a specific service member without delay.
